  1. Very sorry to hear this. I upgraded to the latest build voluntarily and I didn't have any major issues (except one which broke mostly all Adobe Photoshop products, and neither companies are willing to solve the matter). It's very strange that you cannot go back to the previous build. Usually, after such big updates, there is always a Windows.old folder which contains everything needed for a full restore to the previous build. I really don't know what might have happened.
  2. Landing a F-35B on the HMS Queen Elizabeth, using a multi-room flight simulator: http://www.bbc.com/news/av/uk-40405476/hms-queen-elizabeth-how-to-land-a-plane-on-new-ship
  3. What the topic title says: http://www.bbc.com/news/av/uk-40426747/luftwaffe-ace-flies-in-spitfire
  4. Yep, they are using the Unreal Engine 4, it was about time they decided to make a PC release too. For all of you who are interested, here are two gameplay demos, the first with commentary from the AC director himself, Kazutoki Kono. For the second video, keep in mind that the dubbing is still a work in progress, I think; there are some translation mistakes (noticeable also in the E3 trailer).
  5. Little sh*t hit the fan; Russia has confirmed that it will view US-led coalition aircraft as targets, from now on: http://www.bbc.com/news/world-middle-east-40329036 Another article regarding today's rarity of air-to-air kills: http://www.bbc.com/news/world-40327934
  6. Thanks Stary! It's also thanks to your discovery that it looks so pretty. The terrain uses a fresh new heightmap created with DEM files, so altitudes are pretty accurate to the Real World. The same can be said for the Iraq/Iran terrain I made, it was my first attempt, the one I am most proud of.
  7. Ditto that. Wish you and your family the best, 76.IAP-Blackbird.
  8. Exactly. It took me three years to develop the Iran/Iraq terrain. I am grateful to all of those who waited for it. I put so much effort into it, and I am a little afraid some people don't even notice it. Other incredible, great modders around here have provided the community with outstanding stuff, all for free. They say, to share is to care. Also, let's not forget, patience is a virtue.
  9. Me too, I like reading aviation related news. Man, I can't believe it. Who needs Ace Combat's fictional aircraft fortresses? We are getting closer to such fiction.
  10. Wow, nice! Thank you, gerwin, I really like your work. Your 3D models (including airbases) and TFDtool are masterpieces.
  11. Good to see you're back, viper63a! Thanks for sharing this nice package!
  12. Nice addition indeed! Maybe one day we will see an updated ODS campaign package with my accurate terrain remake. I keep on dreaming.
  13. "Ripping Falcon" here, reporting for duty! I prefer owls over falcons, though, LOL!
  14. It once happened to me a long of time ago, but I don't remember exactly how I fixed it. Check if you have a custom AIRCRAFTOBJECT.ini inside the Objects folder, and remove it. As far as I remember, once I messed around with some custom .ini files from Stary, and I got that bug.
  15. I released a standalone, updated terrain (which hopefully will receive another update later this month): http://combatace.com/files/file/16395-iraq-western-asia-1980-2003/ The campaign files must be edited so that the new terrain can be used.

    The Great Standoff

    Yes, that's the one, thanks mate!

    The Great Standoff

    Damn, now I remember. The version I was telling about was actually a video from YouTube. I might be able to find it again. Thanks, Skyviper!

    The Great Standoff

    Yeah, an old one. IIRC, the version I read had the Spanish in place of the Canadians. Still funny though.
  19. I am planning updates to my old terrains and some new terrain releases, and I was wondering if I could find a way to make better looking planning maps, very similar to the stock SF ones. Spectre8750 managed to make some of them for other custom terrains, such as this: http://combatace.com/topic/75208-alternate-kaw-terrain-v3-planning-map-set/. Does anybody have any suggestions or the perfect, secret recipe? Thanks in advance.
  20. Don't worry EMCON360! You answered my question anyway, you didn't hijack the thread. BTW, Google Earth is what I primarily use for terrain making, as well as other sources of info.
  21. SUDNAVY, most painting software should do ok, I use Paint.NET, reopen that _water bitmap and save it as 8bit.
  22. Please use the following support topic when reporting bugs: http://combatace.com/topic/90262-iraq-western-asia-1980-2003/ This space is meant to be used for overall reviews, not for bug reporting. Anyway, thanks for pointing that out. Turns out that the _water bitmap was wrongly saved. Just re-open the _water.bmp file and re-save it as 8-bit and you're good to go. I won't bother to update the package just for this. Fix will be included in next release.
